Answer:

k = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x^2 - 5x + k

dy/dx = 2x - 5 = the slope of the tangent to the curve

The slope of the normal = -1/(2x - 5)

The line  3y + x =25 is normal to the curve so finding its slope:

3y = 25 - x

y = -1/3 x + 25/3 <------- Slope is -1/3

So at the point of intersection with the curve, if the line is normal to the curve:

-1/3 = -1 / (2x - 5)

2x - 5 = 3  giving x = 4.

Substituting for x in y = x^2 - 5x + k:

When x = 4, y =  (4)^2 - 5*4 + k  

y = 16 - 20 + k

so y = k - 4.

From the equation y = -1/3 x + 25/3,  at x = 4

y = (-1/3)*4 + 25/3 = 21/3 = 7.

So y = k - 4 = 7

k = 7 + 4 = 11.

Answer:

5985 can fit in the room!

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 150 * 100 = 15000

2) 6 * 6 = 36

3) 15000 - 36 = 14964

4) 14964 / 2.5 = 5985.6

5) But you can't fit almost half a person inside or create another whole person soo you round down to 5985

Emma's square patio below has been area=31 sq ft. She decides to decrease one dimension by 1 foot and decreases the other dimens
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

4.57ft  by 1.57 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Emma's square patio has been area=31 sq.ft

One dimension decrease by 1 foot and other dimension decrease by 4 feet.

We have to find the new dimensions of Emma's patio.

Let x be the side of Emma's square patio

We know that

Area of square=x^2

x^2=31

x=\sqrt{31}=5.57 ft

One dimension=5.57-1=4.57 ft

other dimension=5.57-4=1.57 ft

Hence, the new dimension of Emma's patio is given by

4.57ft  by 1.57 ft

I need answers ASAP!!!
Trava [24]

Answer:

C) Both statements could be correct. RST could be the result of two translations of ABC. TSR could be the result of a reflection and a translation of ABC.

Step-by-step explanation:

When naming congruent shapes, the <u>orders of the congruent vertex letters need to be the same</u>.

Since these are isosceles triangles, the base angles are the same:

m∠R = m∠T = m∠A = m∠C

Therefore the congruency statement can be written two different ways.

ΔABC ≅ ΔRST

ΔABC ≅ ΔTSR

Both statements could be correct.

Choosing between B) and C):

To move ΔABC to where ΔRST or ΔTSR is, you could either:

i) Translate 6 units to the left, and translate 3 units down

ii) Reflect across the y-axis, and translate 3 units down

It can be the result of two translations or a reflection and a translation.

In the result, the base side RT is on the bottom of the shape, like side AC. If you rotated the shape, the base side would not be on the bottom. Therefore B) is incorrect.

A triangle has side lengths of (1.3k+3.5m)(1.3k+3.5m) centimeters, (4.1k-1.6n)(4.1k−1.6n) centimeters, and (9.7n+4.4m)(9.7n+4.4m
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

(5.4k+7.9m+8.1n) centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the side length of a triangle;

S1 = (1.3k+3.5m) cm

S2 = (4.1k-1.6n) cm

S3 = (9.7n+4.4m) cm

Perimeter of the triangle = S1+S2 + S3

Perimeter of the triangle = (1.3k+3.5m) + (4.1k-1.6n) + (9.7n+4.4m)

Collect the like terms;

Perimeter of the triangle = 1.3k+4.1k+3.5m+4.4m-1.6n+9.7n

Perimeter of the triangle = 5.4k+7.9m+8.1n

Hence the expression that represents the perimeter of the triangle is (5.4k+7.9m+8.1n) centimeters
